A team of researchers from Chile, England and the United States reveals the discovery of a new galaxy. Although the galaxy named Cetus is very small, it can help set the age of the universe. As the Cetus galaxy is located 2.5 million light years from Earth and is very small, so far it was not identified. According to researchers, the discovery of the new galaxy means that in the universe there may be more small galaxies than previously thought. The same group of researchers discovered three years ago a small galaxy called Antlia.
